Karnataka to launch SIR from June 30 with 59000 BLOs to overhaul voter rolls across households

Each voter gets two forms, one kept

Karnataka will begin a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls on June 30, deploying more than 59,000 Booth Level Officers for door-to-door verification statewide. After training from June 20 to June 29, BLOs will visit households until July 29 to verify voter details, distribute enumeration forms, and update the grassroots electoral roll. Each voter receives two copies of the form, with options to sign or give a thumb impression, and any absent voter can be covered by an adult family member.
